Mahindra has unveiled the production version of its much-anticipated BE 6 electric SUV at the ongoing Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025. Deliveries are set to begin from March 2025, with introductory prices starting at Rs 18.90 lakh (ex-showroom). Here’s a closer look at what the BE 6 offers.

Striking Design

The BE 6 retains the bold design language showcased in the concept model. It features an angular bonnet with sharp creases, an illuminated BE logo, and horizontally stacked LED projector headlights. C-shaped LED DRLs flank the headlights, adding a distinctive touch. The black lower bumper houses LED fog lamps and a silver skid plate. The BE 6 rides on 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels (with a 20-inch option available), while blacked-out ORVMs and pillars enhance its sporty look. The rear echoes the C-shaped design theme with its taillights and features another illuminated BE logo on the tailgate.

The highlight is a dual-screen setup – a 12.3-inch infotainment system and a digital instrument cluster. A new 2-spoke steering wheel with an illuminated Mahindra logo adds to the premium feel. Feature highlights include multi-zone climate control, dual wireless phone charging, a powerful 1400W Harman Kardon sound system, a panoramic glass roof with ambient lighting, and an AR-based heads-up display.
